Looking for a PSU 450-500watts

I am planning on ocing a epox ep-9npa ultra with a venice 3000+ and some corsair vs. and 6800
Any recommendations for power supply?

criteria
-doesnt have to be silent, but no complaints about it being loud
-hopefully 40-60$, but recommend those good $80 1's too
-450w enough for my build?
-24-pin native is that right?
 
70$ from ewiz... forton blue storm 500w

dont whine about it being more expensive if your gonna buy a CPU for a 939 board that is the cheapest you should buy, if you need to sell blood to spend that extra 10 dollars do it its worth it.
 
Antec TruePowerII 430/480/550.

An Antec TruePowerII 380W would probably be enough for your system, although I wouldnt want to try it. But a 430W+ should be plenty.

An "Enermax 420w Noistaker 2.0" should have no problem power the system you've quoted. According to the specs of the PSU, it has 32A @ +12V. That is more than enough power for a 3000+ with a 6800GT. You could easily add another 6800GT to that system (if your motherboard supports it) and still have enough power.
